Disgraceful lies that keep on giving

 Nancy Pelosi in mask with hands up

We are awash in so many media lies that I thought it might be useful to list a few for easy reference, in no particular order.


#1. The Capitol Hill riot on January 6 was an "armed insurrection" in which five people were killed, including a Capitol Hill officer hit by a fire extinguisher in the head.

Reality: The rioters had no firearms or even knives.  Two of the five died from a stroke and heart attack.  The officer, Brian Sicknick, was not hit by a fire extinguisher, did not die from "blunt trauma," and his death the next day was from "unknown causes," as the New York Times eventually admitted.

Of the two young women Trump supporters who died in the riot, one was shot by an unnamed police officer (the media are, to say the least, incurious) and the other may have had a medical emergency and was trampled.  The deaths, plus injuries to many officers, are tragic. But the media narrative is false: "Five killed in armed insurrection."

#2. Mr. Trump "incited" the riot.
